In light of voluminous evidence of larger than average humans from all over the world, I am afraid that I don't really understand how a topic like this can be so far outside of someone's comfort zone that they are motivated to formulate a disparaging post in response.
I salute AO on their very even-handed examinations of archaeological discoveries which do not fit into the dreary little world of mainstream dogma.

World Catastrophe may have been responsible for isolating an established civilization's fragments in mountainous locales such as Armenia, the Pyrenees, the Drakensberg mountains of SA, and other like areas.
I was surprised to learn the Etruscan origin was Armenia. With an original exodus of 45,000 y ago, this group may be the ad mixture to the Basque.
Do they just build things without checking the location in England? They seem to keep putting playgrounds, parking spaces, etc. on top of important sites.
Most all ancient construction was done by, 'small steps'. We like more modern day to do some like that as well, but we also today believe in something the ancients could not, 'leaps and bounds'.. And our science actually has this as a function. Leap and bound in ancient times, did not exist.. Perhaps the Leap and bound, tool; began with the greeks, ? OR there was a renaissance period, many centuries before the one we acknowledge today.. But when did that ancient renaissance begin and how long did that last ?Because it does seem, it was, lost to history also..
Additionally, who was the first out of the ancient box thinker who began that first renaissance. ? Please reply, beyond curious here :)
There is also an interesting passage in a Plutarch's (Πλούταρχος) 46 d.C./48 d.C. – 125 d.C./127 d.C. work. Moralia XII 61. “De facie quae in orbe lunae apparet”; section 26

Hello, i cannot understand the video provided of just how they watched jupiter, can there be a more detailed mathematical message here, in lehman's terms also please.

The Bible's account of the earth separating from the atmosphere is almost identical to science's. There are numerous stories from around the world, not just of Jewish/Christian origin, that specify the rainbow as a new, never before seen phenomenon having shown up immediately after the deluge. An ultra humid atmosphere would indeed have protected life from cosmic radiation, reasonably indicating longer life spans as constant bombardment from radiation is a distinct part of the aging process.
To put this in perspective, imagine a large radioactive body impacting the earth, exploding and spreading its radioactivity over the entire surface. Those who survived the initial impact would likely still be able to breed but with the new planet wide radioactivity levels, lifespans would be significantly reduced. After thousands of years, the new shortened lifespan would be the norm and it would be difficult for people to accept that their ancestors were once something more than they are. Records, from the "before" time, would eventually be dismissed by those in power as myth and thus dismissed by the masses. People would, as we are today, be ridiculed for believing in magic and fairy tales. However, as science progresses, we are beginning to understand that not only are these magical feats possible but that it's probable that they actually happened.
Back to the rainbow. There's an American Indian legend of the before time that tells of another people who had many large fires, fires larger than any that the ancient Indians ever had. Either the fires caused the flood or the flood was devised to extinguish the fires, I don't remember but as the waters rose, all people sought higher ground. A great chief eventually stretched a buffalo skin from mountain to mountain, protecting all under it from the water. As the waters receded, the skin dried and shrank until it was a thin band, stretching across the sky and had turned from white to all of the colors of the flowers. They understood this new development to be an indicator that this kind of destruction would never happen again.
The atmosphere and/or solar output of today is evidently very different than it was then. We should expect that life is probably very different as well. Don't get me started on what we used to be before our current "perfected" version. Oh, and yes, the remaining giants have indeed gone underground. I could go on and on but won't. Enjoy your lives. I will enjoy mine.
There are evidences of many other visitors here in North America prior to C Columbus. There are Runic markings in the South and Southwest along with Ogham markings along the East Coast that are way older. In New Mexico there are original or paleo-Hebrew texts of the Ten Commandments. In the Grand Canyon there are Egyptian hieroglyphics. These kind of things are glossed over as anything but real by academic types, but that is to be expected so as not to upset their paradigm of whatever they were told in school. Sooner or later, conventional wisdom (the Earth is flat) is replaced by facts (the Earth is spherical). Barry Fell has a book, "America B.C." that is good on his explanation of Ogham markings and Gloria Farley's book "In Plain Sight" covers Ogham as well as Runes in Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and N Mexico.

An interesting idea, would have been a helluva party-house!
Looking at the model though, wouldn’t the massive weight from all of that timber have pushed the stones outward in the outer circle (no buttresses)?
Just askin’.

It was revealed to be a Total Fraud. I rather like that show but it is starting to look like to be almost Pseudo-history.

more pics please. Great discovery :) more story too !

Any nonsense will do, so long as the truth is avoided.
Sometimes a Shiva linga is just a Shiva linga..
Alex, saw your comment :) want to search your megaliths in Bolivia. should be a good learn.

"...supplanting them with a foreign God" Foreign God...foreign labor...it's all good. Both get the job done just as effective.

No conclusive proof - yet - either way.
I find it interesting. A short-lived (unprofitable?) sort of trading post/exploration base is not outside the possible, even if low in probability.
The American Journal of Modern Physics is not a scientifically rigorous publication.
